Skyy’s best trait was his 10 yard split which was an amazing 1.46. That’s top 10 among WR’s in combine history. He also had enough size to play outside. Route running was just part of it.
Unfortunately that draft was total garbage at WR after the top 3 in the class. Rice and Royals have similar traits that they looked for in Skyy (size/10 yd explosion) but they appear to actually be good at football. Oh well. Can’t hit on them all. Skyy was a miss but Rice and Worthy are hits.

Wouldn’t surprise me to see Skyy Moore lead the league in receiving yards

Now you're showing your ignorance... or trolling when you start talking in absolutes like that.

I think Moore did fool people a bit. Usually guys that run the route well technically do well in the NFL but not always. Moore looked fine as far as what running a route is supposed to look like but in the NFL you need to be able to set up the corner. Moore could not do that. You need to accelerate or snap out of your break. Moore could not do that. You need to be strong on the route you are running. Moore is not. Recall when we played Green Bay and Keisean Nixon was covering him. Nixon was running Moore's predictable route for him...

I am honestly disappointed that he still gets to put on a Chiefs uniform. I can't wait until he gets cut from the UFL. I hated the pick, and was brow beaten into believing you-know-who, who claimed Moore would be a very good player. |

Even with the silly spin move, McCluster was far more productive

I've tried to tell y'all this, but if you're getting separation AFTER you're supposed to be getting it, how MUCH of it you're getting doesn't matter. Nobody's looking. Moore NEVER ran his routes on time. He absolutely refused to run a clean, direct route. He was always trying to play playground ball out there and throw wiggle into his routes. So he was still looking to set up his break when he was supposed to be breaking into space. By the time he made a move, Mahomes had moved on. Which is why Mahomes stopped even looking his way. Had he occasionally been where he was supposed to be, when he was supposed to be there, PM would've kept looking at him at least. But he didn't. And that was the why of it. Yards of separation means ****-all. A foot of separation RIGHT at the precise time/place is exponentially more useful than 3 yards of separation when the QB is looking at a different route because when he looked at you, you were out there foot-firing.

Think about our WR room at this point: Rice, Hollywood, Worthy, and now Royals (and optimism emerging for the 5-6 spots.) that’s a hell of a turnaround in a two or three years as long as they’re all healthy and available.

It's also kind of why Hunter Renfrow has been out of the league. Shifty little slot who can do some crazy stuff, but struggles being "on time" in the offense. If he's not freelancing, he's not productive, type of deal.
